Increasing efficiency.....

[depper]

Just an update and a big thank you.........

I brewed today and got an 84% mash efficiency (per BeerSmith)!! The closet I got before was 66%.... I really concentrated on getting a 50/50 split from mash volume and sparge volume. I did a mash-out this time as well and my volume was spot on! I just wanted to thank all of you that contributed to my increased efficiency and the time you spent to help. Blessings to you all!

Yep. Don't believe when anyone says you can't get good efficiency batch sparging. Good efficiency is worthless if it's not consistent. Next goal should be dialing it in such that on a similar sized grain bill you hit the same efficiency every time, and can accurately predict change in efficiency as you scale up or down the gravity.
